Financial, Executive and Professional Risks (FINEX)

Your organisation’s success depends on its reputation as well as support from its executives and professionals. Our expertise helps safeguard that reputation and support its further success.

Organisations face changing litigation and regulatory landscapes. There is a growing reliance on technology, with advantage going to early adopters and to companies that can identify an opportunity before their competitors have time to act.

But with each opportunity comes risk. And risk is a recurring theme at board-of-directors level, with complex, multidisciplinary risks challenging companies like never before. It means that protecting yourself and your organisation is critical.

In a world with ever increasing connectivity, companies can now be targeted from anywhere, at any time, by anyone using a computer. Criminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods to target companies and increasing levels of collusion have resulted in significant losses caused by employees.

The climate for claims against directors has never been more hostile. Whether for the consequences of a significant cyber-attack or a serious regulatory breach or as a result of other corporate scandal or collapse, the focus on personal accountability at board level is unrelenting.

In today’s world, employees are a principal strength for most companies, yet they are also one of the greatest sources of risk. The exposure to claims made by a single employee or a group of employees for employment related issues impacts many, if not all, companies.

A vital part of risk management is building a comprehensive understanding of the risks that a business is facing. This is often difficult for an individual business as it only has experience of its own claims and losses.

At Willis Towers Watson we understand that the financial institutions sector is complex and constantly changing. New challenges such as increasing scrutiny from regulators, investors and clients; a growing litigation landscape; stricter governance requirements; the swift pace of technological advancements; and legislative changes are driving an ever more challenging environment with which our clients must keep pace.

Pension Trustee Liability insurance provides cover where a claim is brought alleging a wrongful act in areas such as breaches of trust, breaches of duty, breaches of statutory provision, negligence, errors and omissions, miss-statements, and misleading statements, and maladministration or any other wrongful act committed or allegedly committed in relation to a Pension Scheme.
